Chobani Mac ‘n Cheese

Simple macaroni and cheese recipe that uses yogurt! Chobani Mac 'n Cheese is also made with cheddar cheese and nutmeg, adding a slight twist to the classic recipe!

Serves: 8

1 cup unseasoned breadcrumbs

5 tablespoons unsalted butter

1/4 cup flour

1 3/4 cups hot milk

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

2 cups grated Cheddar

1 cup grated Gruyere

1 cup Chobani Plain 0% Greek Yogurt

1 pound elbow macaroni

Preheat oven to 375° F.

Butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart ovenproof dish.

Melt 3 tablespoons butter and combine well with breadcrumbs in small bowl. Set aside.

Melt remaining tablespoons of butter in saucepan over medium heat. When butter bubbles, add flour and cook, whisking constantly for 1 to 2 minutes.

Slowly pour hot milk into flour-butter mixture, whisking constantly. Continue cooking and stirring until mixture bubbles and becomes thick enough to coat back of a spoon. Remove pan from heat. Stir in salt, nutmeg, black pepper, cheddar, and Gruyere. Set cheese sauce aside. When it has cooled for 5 minutes, gently whisk in the Chobani.

Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add macaroni; cook 2 to 3 minutes less than indicated on package directions. Pasta will continue to cook in oven.

Drain macaroni in colander, and stir into cheese sauce.
Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over the top.

Bake until brown on top, about 30 minutes. Transfer dish to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes; serve.
